The Michael Initiative

Just like in real life, there are a lot more clothes and accessories for Vicky (women) than Mike (men). Genesis has leveled the playing field - now you can dress your figures in whatever clothing you want. So post your renders of male characters in your favorite female clothes and poses.

Please note: this is not a complaint thread or a political statement. It's all meant in good fun.

I do find it interesting the discussions of how the Hawkeye Initiative has been gaining ground while the site that inspired it (Escher Girls) has gotten less attention despite being around longer. Granted there's no genuine ill will between the two so maybe one will succeed where the other hasn't. Oh well.

First image is Marius D3 by Jepe, GenX'd, in Sickleyield's Ophidia Sandals, the Supercape, and the Evil Innocence Fantasy Huntress for V4, autofitted. (Technically, I think it's armor. Technically.) I actually used it seriously (...sort of) in an image, where I just flipped everything on its head. The woman was leading the party and was in full armor, and all of the men were in varying versions of Very Impractical Clothing For A Battle. The outfit has been a bit doctored for this thread -- the "panty" does not normally come up anywhere near that high in front, but it does also come with a boatload of morphs. In its natural state, the panty comes up just above the base of his unTOSables.

Second image: "Nightshayde with Belladonna" (couldn't resist the pun) is a F3/F4/M5 Hero combination with Dave Elite texture, wearing Nightshayde for Genesis and holding MJC's belladona plant while running out of Merlin's Monument. He's also doing The Twist -- the wildly improbable pose that women on posters and comic book covers wind up in to show both their behinds and their chests at the same time. Had to turn limits off to make it even doable. Looks very painful, that does.

Definitely all in good fun - after all, to use these outfits this way, we have to have bought them. We're not going to shell out for outfits we don't like. I especially have always been impressed with the excellent base meshing on B25's Roxana - I've never been unhappy with an outfit by him/her in terms of quality, and look how well this conforms to a morph it wasn't meant to support (even the crotch-ankh didn't clip).

Presenting Michael 5, the prettiest vampire. I promise to use some of my own work in the next one. :-D
